WLAN control usingvia Onvif protocol: Adding ONVIF cameras to be controlled via WAN

1.At Camera Location:
•For commands to flow from outside the network into a camera, ports must be opened
•Contact the network administrator at the camera location to create a port-forwarding rule in the router allowing commands to flow through the necessary ports using these values:
o Source/ external port: 9090 (80 by default, try not to use it, too common, may create conflict, use anyone that is not 80)
o Destination / internal port: 80 (default)
o IP Address: IP Address of the camera
o Protocol: Both (TCP and UDP)
2. At Keyboard location:
• Set the keyboard to DHCP
• Contact the network administrator at the Keyboard location to create a port-forwarding rule in the router allowing commands to flow through the necessary ports using these values:
o Source/ external port: 80 (default)
o Destination / internal port: 80 (default)
o IP Address: IP Address of the keyboard
o Protocol: Both (TCP and UDP)
• Within the Setup menu of the KBD-1010, add the ONVIF camera using the WAN IP of the camera location as the IP Address, click the P/T Speed dial to save.
• Enter the username of the camera, click the P/T Speed dial to save.
• Enter the password of the camera, click the P/T Speed dial to save
• Enter the port for the remote camera: 9090, click the P/T Speed dial to save.
• Exit

How to make Tally Light I/O GPI

In order to use the keyboard controller to control the Tally light function among multiple cameras, you need to have the following conditions ready:
1. The cameras are Tally light function supported ready.
2. Video Switch which supports Tally light control function.
3. All cameras been connected in RS422 Daisy Chain mode.
4. Keyboard controller and Video Switch been connected via the Tally Contact port.

Follow the steps to setup:
A. GPI I/O Input mode – Tally signal is sent by Video Switch
1. Make sure cameras and keyboard controller is connected by standard RS422 control cable, keyboard and video switch connected by Tally function cable.
2. Access to KEYBOARD SETTING>GPI I/O>SETTING menu, change it to Input mode, then Exit to home directory.
3. After done the above operations, we can switch to different camera by video switch. for example, if we switch to camera 1 on video switch, it will send Tally signal to keyboard via the Tally function cable, and keyboard will transmit this Tally signal to camera 1 via RS422 control cable, so camera 1 Tally light will be turned on, and keyboard can control camera 1 PTZ.
4. If switch to camera 2 on video switch, camera 2 Tally light will be turned on and camera 1 Tally light will be turned off.

How to make Tally control cable, here we use Sony Mulit Camera Live Producer MCX-500 for example:

B. GPI I/O Output mode -Tally signal is sent by Keyboard Controller
1. Make sure cameras and keyboard controller is connected by standard RS422 control cable.
2. Access to KETBOARD SETTING>GPI I/O>SETTING menu, change it to Output mode, then Exit to home directory.
3. After done the above operations, we can switch to different camera by keyboard. For example, if we switch to camera 1 on keyboard, it will send Tally signal to camera 1 via standard RS422 control cable, so camera 1 Tally light will be turned on, and keyboard can control camera 1 PTZ.
4. If we switch to camera 2 on keyboard, camera 1 Tally light will be turned on and camera 1 Tally light will be turned off.
